I’ve always found people who freak out about AI sentience extremely pathetic. Just absolute baboons who get impressed by mundane shit. I first came across it with the whole “roko’s basilisk” shit and immediately dismissed them as morons, and many years later I’m still validated

:manhattan:

In china, children are limited to only 2 hours of internet for play.

“I started to realize, this was never a game I could win,” the participant, who took a leave of absence from work to film the show, said. “I’m not a contestant, I’m an extra.”

They applied for the show themselves after receiving a targeted ad on Instagram, while other cast members included a TikTok star, a set of twins, a father-child pair, and others who had been directly contacted by production.

These are literally scenes from Squid Game

That’s crazy. Someone should make a satirical drama about the exploitation of workers and poor people being commoditized as a deadly game show for rich people

I remember being 13 years old and trying to seem cool, smart, and mysterious by acting sophisticated and bored when the plebians start blabbing about trivial matters

Castro should’ve made more political ads telling Americans to :vote:

owning a fancy car = you hate the poors

owning multiple mansions, palaces, generational fortune, having millions to even “donate” = lover of the poors

Actual human beings referring to someone as “a domestic”

Without a critical anti-imperialist lens it’s just ebib American soldiers blasting away Charlie and his elderly guerrilla mom. But otherwise it’s decent

the only decent Succdem is Corbyn.

Not true. There are decent south Americans ones. They’re usually anti imperialist

Peace Corps has a page dedicated to non white, non straight, non cis, and female volunteers who plan on traveling to Ukraine.

They warn people that you’re likely going to experience racism and all kinds of -phobias, but it’s okay because you’re doing it for a good cause lol.

It is not uncommon for Ukrainians to refer to African-Americans as “[N-Word]”. Volunteers of color may be called ‘a monkey’ or may see children’s games with Blackface. Being aware of the history of dehumanization for people of African descent may help inform where this comes from

Yeah I’m sure black people who are upset by the N word don’t know the history of dehumanization for black people of African descent

“Why does fascism keep getting normalized and end up killing minorities in churches?!”

Interesting. This post reminded me of another movie about a poverty stricken family, but they were American and I think the father was a ride share driver. I forgot the name though

This is where all the foreign legion troops are,

They got all the best foreign fighters in a single location? :data-laughing: Wonder of Zelensky will be held responsible for this

the reality of basically being bodies in front of the advancing Russians

“We have more men than they have ammo!”
